Boarding School: Miraculous

Chapter 14- Hospital

This chapter is a re write from the last time I posted it so enjoy this new one!!

Adrien's POV
I stand there rubbing Marinette's hand softly with mine. Tears began to fall down my face but I push them back. I have to be strong for her. I should have been there for her, but I let her get hit with a gun and now she's lying in a hospital bed. I'd rather have been shot then her. I'd rather be the one in the hospital bed then to see her suffer. Just then Marinette's eyes begin to open.
"Oh Mari you're awake!"
"What happened?" She asks slurring her words.
"Well- umm. Let's just say Nathaniel happened."

Mari's POV
I flinch and start to cry, my breathing becoming faster and faster. Hearing that one name can set me off. It's like I'm back in the bathroom again hearing the loud boom of the gunshots and the sharp feeling of it hitting my back. I remember it all. How I felt at that moment. Adrien walking in to see me. Nathaniel shouting that I didn't listen to him.
I see Adrien come onto the hospital bed next to me.
"Marinette, you need to breathe. It's okay. He's gone. He's not coming back. He's in jail. I'm right here next to you." He assures me and rubs my back. Nothing seems to calm me down. Adrien lets me sob into his shoulder. Hearing those gunshots and being touched by him. Being forced by him. Something I never want to experience again. Something I never wish on anybody.
"Adrien, I'm so sorry you have to see me like this. I wanted the night to be perfect. I'm sorry I look like a mess."
"Marinette, listen to me. None of this your fault." He grabs onto my hands. "Rape isn't anyone's fault except for the person that did it." With my heart rate being up loads of nurses flood into my room.
"Excuse me sir but visiting hours are over." A nurse says to Adrien.
"I'm not leaving," he says firmly.
"My father is Gabriel Agreste and if you'd like me to call him I will." I sit there shocked. Adrien never uses his father to get what he wants. Half the time he doesn't even like being related to him. There are rumors going around that Gabriel was hawkmoth. Adrien always denies it when asked by paparazzi but I can see it. Though Gabriel was akumatized, Hawkmoth probably figured out a way to akumatize himself. If not into Gabriel but maybe somebody else. Just think about a man who lost his wife, always working and never goes out of his house. Seems pretty suspicious if you ask me.

"You can stay sir," the nurse says flinching with a shaky voice.
The nurses bring in tubes and start to hook them up to me. I don't even know what's in them. I hate hospitals. The nurses crowding around you and sounds of the heart monitor next to you. Hearing how scared Adrien is sitting next to me. "We'll have to do surgery on her back," one of the doctors mumbles.
"Yeah, definitely stitches. She got hit in the neck pretty bad so we'll need to do surgery on that as well," the doctor replies.
"Is she going to have surgery?" Adrien asks worriedly looking scared at the doctors surrounding me.
"Yes, but it isn't anything we haven't done before. The surgery should be very successful."
"Should be!" Adrien shouts.
"Well, however many times we do it we can't guarantee one hundred percent."
"Can't guarantee! She better be okay!" Adrien's face starts to get very heated. Before I can even talk to him the nurses rush me off into another room. They inject sleeping medicine inside me and my vision gets dark.

.....
I open my eyes lightly squinting but all I can see is a white light. I am I dying? What's going on? I don't even remember where I am. But then I hear Alya's voice....
"Where am I?" I ask slurring my words barley being able to speak.
"You're in the hospital, Marinette," Alya explains slowly enough for me to understand. "You just had surgery."
"What's surg-gery?" I hear them all laugh.
"Come on Mari, lets get you home. "
Next thing I know I'm being pushed into a wheel chair and carried into the car. Alya drives and Nino sits in the front with her, while Adrien I are in the back.
"I'm sorry if I'm acting crazy right now kitty."
"Kitty? You haven't called me that in ages," Adrien chuckles with the warm smile he always has when he is genuinely happy.
"Huh what?"
"It'll all be okay m'lady," Adrien whispers while I fall asleep on his shoulder.
